Just wondering why TC threads are invalidating the session... Another option to test is add a line of code in your login process (whatever establishes the HttpSession object) and manually set the timeout with the HttpSession.setMaxInactiveInterval() method. I believe this method overrides any descriptor settings. Of course, having said all of that, your descriptors should work as you have specified. Perhaps the "multiple applications" or other service timeout descriptors are influencing the session timeouts...I've seen stranger things happen...you might find this link useful as a test of your TC session timeout setup... http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=127074 HTH, Rob -----Original Message----- From: Dave Morrow [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 29, 2005 10:48 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Help with session-timeout Hi all.
